FWIW:
Lets see if we can help with some terms:
When re-ringing to standard size rings, cylinders are deglazed, to allow the new rings to seat properly.
Also if there is a large ridge @ the top of the cyl. it needs to be removed, as if left it can cause a new top ring to break.
You really don't want to hone a cyl, as that usually implies going oversize.
Most shops will use a Hone to achieve .010 oversize or more.
They will speak of boring/honing to oversize to achieve the proper cross hatch pattern, but most just use a hone and not go to the trouble of boring first, then honing.
Can you post a good pix of the Scratches in the Cyl. you are concerned with?
Possibly we can tell if it can be left alone with just deglazing or needs to be addressed, by going oversize.
Small scratches that don't go the full length of the ring travel most times can be left alone with no appreciable problems later.
